Sifu Francis teaching trapping during FFIA Affiliate Camp

I was in his seminar once, absolutely one of the most brilliant teachers ever.

“You don’t stop fighting, you finish the fight” -Sifu Francis Fong Words of wisdom

[@sebastianlencina8549]

True master of wing chun , i practiced wing chun about 30 years in a lots of schools and styles , and this is one of the way to apply , great master

[@kingasher415]

Sifu Fong is amazing and very skillful! I too did a weekend seminar with him and Guro Inosanto; both excellent and phenomenal teachers.

[@gwailotus9154]

WOW. i rarely see a great Wing Chun Master with power, speed and can smoothly adapt in many various situations.

[@user-nb8dm1gz2t]

he is also cross trained in other arts

[@joshuadavis1723]

How quick he is with his sensitivity. Not looking he is on point. Looking he is point. Very impressive

[@datasamm]

That was superb, amazing! Decades to perfect, a lifetime to master - it keeps you fit throughout one's life.

[@jjones7837]

Very impressed. Clean, Crisp and Superb timing and rhythm. Thanks for sharing.

[@fire1ization]

Wing Chun Baby. Proud of you for showing Wing Chuns Practicality! From Ny to you , Respect n Love

[@1sirgrandmastermrkingrober216]

This was great. This excellent Teacher is so good it’s amazing & his students did great too. It is difficult to see & witness the technique(s) he is teaching it is so fast, which is good too. It make us work harder & the nature of the technique(s) is supposed to be fast & effective like that. The teacher obviously can do these technique(s) even if blind, which is an awesome component & aspect of this martial art he is teaching, always. All of these peoples look in great shape and health..& nice Dojo’, Sir. Good job!

[@carldrinkwater1817]

Respect Sifu Francis Fong I have been training and teaching for 29 years now and I teach not to grip with the thumb and to have the elbow ready always as well for the same reasons.

[@joanstone6740]

basic information in Chinese martial arts no need to pack yourself on the back

[@loconoia]

this master will knock you out before you even touch him, what a great art wing chung is....gotta learn it some day

[@lps8966]

@makaveli thedon damn son.. your balls on your face?!

[@tacomator2895]

This master won't do anything. Wing chun is useless in a real life or death fight. Watch the videos of wing chun vs other martial arts and wing chun always loses. Tell me why you never see it used in MMA?

[@scoast00]

@@tacomator2895 Sifu fong is demonstrating reflex response…I attended many a seminar late 80s and early 90 s, he is a full muay Thai instructor under Ajarn Chai Sirisute. I believe he is also full instructor under Guru Dan Inosanto in Kali and JKD, he also has experience in other arts and western boxing as well, but yes his core experience is in Wing Chun… he is very dangerous if he wasn’t so nice!

[@scoast00]

@Bebo Again this is a brief snippet of a training session, perhaps showing one (yes less practical) of other counters to a double leg takedown. I know there are many delusional wing chin instructors on KZbin but I promise you Sifu Fong is an exceptional instructor and very practical, he also studied Judo for several years in Hong Kong. He is a very open minded, true martial artist. I am not one of his students but attended seminars from him in Late 90 s and early 90 s. He use to have a summer camp with Guru Dan and Ajarn Chai.

[@scoast00]

@Bebo what is being shown is a brief look of a training session or seminar. With all due respect, I do not think you can say someone’s experience in an art is crap by a quick transitional snap shot. Sifu Fong is a great martial artist, I have not attended his seminars in quite some time, so I do not know if he studied more of grappling arts, similarly to Guru Dan who has earned his black belt under the Machados, I believe in his 70s. What I do know is His Uke/student is now a black belt in BJJ under Pedro Sauer so his school has access to very practical methods of grappling which would encompass defense against a double leg takedowns, Unfortunately there are many so called masters on KZbin but Sifu Fong should not be included Int that “crap”. Let’s be respectful to those that deserve respect.

[@arturoyescas4175]

such a beautifully efficient art. Can't wait to start my classes next week!

[@mikem4185]

Arturo, so how have your classes been going?

[@wingchun-simplekungfu7584]

Are you still training? Did you find a good teacher?

[@davidwilliams4837]

Beautiful movement. Great advice. Thank you.

[@wotchthiz]

No wingchun fights I've ever seen have been this crisp and clean. But the art itself is really quite beautiful.

[@joshuasowden5760]

wotchthiz Yeah they never are when it comes to fighting or even sparring. You'll never see it as robotic as when learnt from a reference point. But it's the same even with boxing, when on the pads you can't miss, but when in the ring not all of your shots land, I believe arts such as wing chun are unfairly judged.

[@gspier327]

You haven't ever seen a good wing chun practitioner get in a fight.

[@gwailotus9154]

+G Spier - exactly.... the only non believers r the ones who haven't sparred with the real Masters. And free spar not just chi sau. travel, experience, be awed. until then they need to STFU

[@legacyjeetkunedo492]

You could say that about any art, including boxing, BJJ, etc. Fights are messy, but it helps to have a starting point of crisp technique.

[@dowens3781]

@@legacyjeetkunedo492 Definitely. A real fight is usually unpredictable, but when you have a tool box of fighting techniques to choose from (as this master does), you can adapt and improvise.

[@elpeleadorr]

really practical and impressive WC !! Real Master !

[@emotionalsanta]

This guy is incredibly impressive. So fast, so many applications.

[@nightfire4107]

Sifu is quick! Want him as my master

[@bluemagoo]

It's crazy how Wing Chun's insane barrage of offense acts as a defense because it's coming so fast you don't have time to think about the next move…he's already got the next 4 planned 🤯

[@birdyashiro1226]

“天下武功，唯快不破”

[@bleedniris]

I wouldn't even say he planned the next 4 moves, but rather mastered the sensitivity and flow of many angles from chi sao to the extent where his body subconsciously reacts to any motion given or taken.

[@merlindeg7605]

love the way he glides across the room at the end. no doubt he could take down everyone in that room.

[@WereWolf27181]

Cool I like it. Good lesson Sifu. 🇨🇾👊🏽🙏🏽🐺

[@808frontline]

Sifu Francis Fong is awesome! We gotta get you guys out here to Hawaii for a seminar.

[@leejunfan63]

love watching sifu fong and sifu kwok

[@Bene_Singularis]

I like a lot the blending with techniques from many arts. The flow there. You see the experience in his movements. Like water, as Bruce would say.

[@tinahale1471]

Great teacher!👏👏👏🌹🏆

[@BrunoFerreira-zs8st]

Awsome teacher!

[@andrewromano3105]

HA speed is the most impressive part of any self-defense in kung fu or martial arts and this video demonstrates it perfectly effortlessly

[@curist8411]

I think the main concept that people need to see with martial arts is that its not self defense, its offense, this is true with almost all arts

[@1337m4rt1]

This guy is a machine!

[@nomassbitches4562]

Wow...great skill !

[@HenryEllisonHoweyJr]

Thank you Sifu Fong!!!!!

[@9095]

As someone who has never once done wing chun, I could not keep up with those techniques, but they looked amazing

[@wmoy8507]

Very good teacher.

this guy has to be one of the best

[@banedestroysbatmanofcanada4622]

They say wing chun is useless but it's fucking quick..

[@jackma3674]

Michael Hanlon actually as i know wing chun is mastered to knock someone out just in 1 or 2 shots...mostly people mastered wing chun does not easily show themselves...but the moment they open up...thats it hahahaha

[@prospervienne4539]

see how francis fong keeps his elbows in place, not letting his elbows going backward, so his intention still go forward

[@patrickfreeman7096]

that's a part of the sil lim tao. concept of lat sao jik chung, one of the primary and first handfull of concepts taught.

[@error2k1]

thats why it doesnt work in mma

[@OfficialNickJay]

​@@error2k1 why so many obsessed MMA fanboys. It's like the worst thing to enter the world of mixed martial arts. Always ends up hugging on the floor until the bell rings, seriously boring, not realistic in the real world. Kudos to those who enjoy the sport in the octagon, for me it's boring and a little bit gay compared to BKFC or Streetbeefs.

i just hear 'my wive', btw beauty moves

[@obicross]

lots of wives lol

[@_Wai_Wai_]

People say wing Chun practitioners don't know how to grapple, but you can say wrestlers don't know how to strike. In a wrestling match if you even throw a punch you could get disqualified. I suppose MMA does allow the most variety. Even some MMA fighters use Wing Chun techniques.

[@uli9084]

real fighter wing chun

[@ayw5118]

the question is who ever initiates a strike like this? Same problem with many traditional ma, it becomes self referential, a wingchun block is surely effective only for a wingchun strike.

[@naj4261]

I mean thats also true to all pure Martial Arts though(that arent usually cross-practiced). A boxer will learn how to fight against boxers, wrestlers against wrestlers and bjj against bjj (that doesnt mean that all of them are useless against one another, some are more applicable in most scenarios than others). Also a Wing Chun guy will very likely not outstrike a boxer, but he doesnt need to, because of low kicks, grappling and depending on the school even some ground game.

[@hudsonwong7109]

Easy to do it in a relax way with prediction how the opposite side move. Say, what if he kicks instead of using arm attack , or he use the forehead to hit. That is why when all these practise go up stage cannot perform because they have a set mind how should the other side attack.

[@breaking3837]

I think wing chun would work much better with more realistic sparring against various styles. If I had time I would probably learn (or try to learn) Muay Thai, Jiu-jitsu and Wing Chun.

[@DennisDinges]

It looks like it will take multiple lifetimes to ingrain all these moves

[@mikekelly9851]

This is against an opponent fighting in the same style. What would you do if he was throwing punches, jabs, uppercuts and hooks?

[@Spiritof_76]

Grapple. Trap and strike. Francis Fong is not 1 dimensional.

[@timd3395]

Audio echoes like crazy. Anyone else?

[@JKDVIPER]

Francis fong taught Dan inosanto.. all I gotta say..

[@brianball2176]

I can’t even track his hands

[@urmonn8162]

It's Wing Chun...people are silly..if you can't actually fight already your really gonna get your ads kicked trying "just Wing Chun....Kung Fu has become delusional..these guys are awesome

[@agtakaitilak645]

this is a good fighting skills but it depends on who you'll be fighting with, uneven height weight and body built is a different story

[@Spiritof_76]

That's true no matter what you train.

this is similar with Kali i think. sir can you teach us how to defend in a knife attack.

tay

[@MrProfchaos71]

Effective against other practitioners and the untrained only. To me that’s what most arts are about. It’s designed to fight people who either have no training in anything and are attacking you or people who trained in the same art . A boxer or kick boxer or BJJ guy would WRECK this dude. He’s showing you trapping skills against another guy doing trapping skills

[@redpillpusher]

I agree with most of what you said but regarding "untrained" fighters... Ive known untrained "street fighters" that will give trained fighters a run for their money 😇

[@MrProfchaos71]

@@redpillpusher oh for sure. There are some guys that are just naturally good with their hands etc. I’d say those types of untrained fighters would generally whoop most martial arts dudes other than guys with solid boxing/kickboxing or Muay Thai skills. Maybe a guy with a solid background in BJJ plus wrestling would also handle an untrained but talented street fighter assuming he’s good at avoiding strikes and shooting in etc.

The fatal flaw of Wing Chun is not guarding to protect your face, and not tucking your chin.

[@sportmuaythaiv1045]

@Bebo Lol! Please kindly show a clip of Wing Chun fighter with proper guard stance. Also, kicking the balls is not the optimum solution. I'm not a gifted athlete,but a true desk jockey. I started training muaythai at 57, and here is yours truly training at age 76++. Do you sincerely beleive a Wing Chun fighter can easily kick my balls? May be you can offer a clip of yourself to confirm what you've posted. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eqeQp5WMZ5qGebM

[@HerbertLifeCoach]

Who told you that? It's nonsense.

[@LegendoftheAce1]

Trapping should have the same respect as the guard in bjj. It's a chess match in which a few mistakes will get you caught.
